Macrobiotics — A Way of Eating, A Way of Living

Macrobiotics is a dietary and lifestyle philosophy. From Greek: macro (great) + bios (life).

Core Principles:

1. Whole, unprocessed foods — grains, vegetables, beans, sea vegetables

2. Seasonal and local eating

3. Balance of yin and yang

4. Minimal animal products — fish allowed, dairy/meat minimized

5. Mindful preparation

Not a fad diet. Not veganism. Not calorie counting. A framework for choosing foods that support long-term health.
